Murder-suicide suspect's obituary remembering 'family' man accused of killing wife, 5 kids sparks outrage
Fox News
The obituary for Michael Haight, accused of killing his wife, mother-in-law and five kids inside their Utah home, is prompting outrage for describing him as a devoted family man.
Police say he also murdered their three daughters, ages 17, 12 and 7, and two sons, ages 7 and 4, and his 78-year-old mother-in-law, Gail Earl, before allegedly turning the gun on himself Jan. 4. The gruesome discovery of eight bodies inside their Enoch City home rocked the community of just some 8,000 people.

It’s unclear who penned the obituary for Michael Haight published in The Spectrum newspaper. But in a twisted take, it recounts how the deceased accused killer met his wife in the student ward of Southern Utah University, married her May 10, 2003, and how they later welcomed five children together.
